Safety, trust & environment

My apartment is very safe, with childproof windows and very pet-safe. I had a pet of my own living here until recently. There is a large green space attached to my apartment building that is well-lit and has lots of foot traffic. That being said, you can always find a quiet pocket of space for those who are less socialable.

Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any medications, notable quirks or sensitivities - such as 'doesn't like being touched on the tummy' or 'doesn't like men', and what their exercise and feeding schedules are like. Please bring anything your pet may need during their stay that would make them feel comfortable and relaxed; bedding, food, treats, outside wear, toys, etc. (I have bowls)

A typical day

I like to provide lots of stimulation with a good balance of low-key snuggling time. It's really about learning from you what their routine is at home and replicating that as much as possible.

Pet care experience

I've been caring for animals, literally my entire life. Growing up, we were 'the house with all of the animals', so I have firsthand experience with cats, dogs (small and large), bunnies, guinea pigs, chickens, frogs, birds, and more! From day 1 to their final days, I've been there with my pets (and others) through it all. My senior dog (17.5) recently passed away, so I have a lot of experience with elder care and medications. Now that it's just me (and my husband), I would love to help care for your pet and share a bit of my love with them. I know what it feels like to go off on holiday and wonder about your pet - rest assured, I work from home and believe in sending daily photo updates (at least!) Personal report card provided at end of stay! I live in an apartment with a large grass area attached, and a lovely park about 10 minutes away - perfect for walks and potty breaks! Due to the nature of my work, I am able to be available for animals that may need extra care, frequent outings, or medications throughout the day. I also live with my husband, Matt, who will be around and available to help care for your pet.

Samantha is a wonderful and reliable cat sitter. She is so friendly and patient with cats, and we’re very glad she took care of our cats while we were away last week!

We’re so happy we found Sam! She did a wonderful job with our dog, Moon. Moon is a rescue and can get very timid around new people, but from the photos, it looked like she was absolutely thriving.

Very polite professional patient and caring. One of my dogs is special needs and Samantha had no issues with him.

Samantha and her husband, Matt took excellent care of our cat, Arya. They were attentive to our instructions and gave him lots of company while we were away. We loved all the photos of our cuddly boy! Will certainly book again!
